In plants with strict EMC requirements, line filters work together with Active Interface Modules to restrict the conducted interference emanating from the power modules to the limit values of Category C2 as defined in EN 61800‑3. Line filters are suited only for direct connection to TN systems.

Note: According to product standard IEC 61800-3, radio interference suppression commensurate with the relevant rated conditions must be provided and is a legal requirement in the EU (EMC Directive). Line filters and line reactors are required for this purpose. The use of line filters of other makes can lead to limit value violations, resonance, overvoltages and irreparable damage to motors or other equipment. The machine manufacturer must provide verification that the machinery to be operated with the drive products and the installed suppression elements, e.g. line filters, are CE-EMC-compliant.

Optional Basic Line Filters that are coordinated with the power ranges in booksize format are available for the SINAMICS S120 drive system.

With the Basic Line Filters in combination with the Active Interface Modules, the limits for the interference voltages can be extended to Category C2 (IEC 61800‑3) or, retaining Category C3, longer total cable lengths are possible for the configuration.
